How to use Pinterest

Hi Elaine and Scarlett, seems Triblu has a tutorial on it.

Very interesting 'social media' platform -- looks like a great thread of discussion already -- thanks kindly for asking this question, all the best, cheerio ...... 😊🎈

Looks like there are good answers below. I will check some of them out, too.

It is in the bootcamp training and it looks like smartketeer already provided the link. But it does look like there is a lack of intermediate to advanced level training on pinterest. There is so much more to pinterest that includes creating colorful graphics with either canvaa or picmonkey, which both have pinterest templates. Once you find great stock photos from your website or somewhere else, you can import that into one of these programs to create the graphic. You want to create an eye-catching pin for each blog post that you have. The more consistent you are, the bigger your following can grow. The beauty of it is that you can go and randomly add up to 300 people a day just by clicking the add button next to their profile. Almost half of them will usually follow you back. On top of that, there are schedulers like Tailwind that can automate your process so that the pins go out at a certain time when people are on the platform the most. I will look into creating video training for my new blog.

Hello,

My goodness, we thank you so much for this information and we look forward to your training.

No problem. It's also great for keyword research as there is a search bar that you can use for keywords within your niche. Once you start typing it in, it will bring up different colored boxes that are like google suggestions to complete the keyword phrase. I would suggest that you start by creating a free business profile, creating a few boards for topics that interest you, and just start adding other people's pins to your boards. Many people will add you just by re-pinning their pins to your board. It's very easy to get started and start adding people to your following. Many experts are saying that their free organic traffic won't last forever, so the sooner you build your following the better.

Hey Elaine,

Here is a tutorial to help you find excellent training videos and tutorials here at WA, as well as finding things on Google: Learning how to find what you need really will help you succeed.

Hope you find this helpful.

We thank you so much !
Elaine and Scarlett

You know I have had a Pinterest account for many years. I don't know why but in some of the training I have found in the nine years before I found WA. It said that you needed to open up an account, so I did. Thanks Kim I will check it out if you think it is worth the time. If I was ever on it was when I opened the account. Send me a reply if you think it will help. Sruffey

Here is my favorite Pinterest training. You will learn very specific strategies to build a Pinterest following and boost traffic :)

We thank you so much ,
Elaine and Scarlett

WA Affiliate Program

We know to welcome new members, but what is the proper way to engage with our network ?

We do also lol , how far back on your following do you go ? Hard to rely to so many people right ?

Hey Elaine,

Perhaps Bill's latest blog post will help you: Hope you find this helpful.

Thank you much !

I like to get on Live Chat!

I meant reply

add followers and assist members by responding to comments and help resolving issues

We thank you !
Elaine and Scarlett

Thank you we are but our “ network “ number remains the same , can you explain why ?

are you also writing posts and reviewing other comments from other members and commenting on tasks?

At the moment we are unable to offer reviews due to gravatar issues , we are writing post , but please clarify commenting on task .

We have not been commenting on task , thank you !

I am talking about any of the training tasks at WA that you have participated in?

Good question, but it looks like you have been given answers from others below. Best of success here.

If you want to engage with your WA referrals especially, the best way is to complete the task which you can find by clicking dollar sign on the top menu of WA and after that by clicking "Tasks". However, if you want to welcome all new members, not only your referrals, then you can follow the advice as given by other members below.
Good Luck!

I really want to learn this business as I have been in my own business most of my life and have done very well and I know I can do very well in this business, I just need help to get started and I would appreciate all the help I can get. So if you can help me I would really appreciate it. Thank You

We thank you so much !

There are lots of ways...writing posts which you do and then responding to the comments.. If you really relate to someone, you can PM them and establish a more personal response. Go to the Dashboard...answer questions...respond to the posts there. Get involved in Live Chat. You can create training once you are comfortable doing that....things you think your network might benefit from. Just reach out to people.
Debbie

We thank you so much
Elaine and Scarlett

Great advice, Debbie! I couldn't have put it better!
Karin

Hey Scarlett and Elaine,
Just answer your emails, commenting on blog posts and welcome new members each day!!!

Tried and True

Elaine

You can start by simply going to your Dashboard and following and welcoming new members! As for older existing members...same thing. Just follow them, and drop a line into their personal profile to say hi, introduce yourself, etc.

Thank you , but how do you manage over 3 k ?

Simple - 1 by 1!

Just make connecting with new people here a priority every day, and you'll be surprised how quickly your network will grow.

Thank you

Unfortunately, we're not allowed to solicit other members here for business - either as providers or employers. You can check people's websites and see if they have professional service sites listed and then contact them off-platform. Business should not be arranged here at WA.

Thank you for your advice .

Long story short I posted a blog and on website, how do I delete from website and what are the consequences for this error pray tell,?

It looks like you always confuse about posting contents on your website or on Wealthy Affiliate because I've seen your many queries related to posting in Wealthy Affiliate or on your website. So, I want to make you clear.

Till date even I've not posted even one blog within Wealthy Affiliate and always write new contents in my own website and I'm one of the successful affiliates here. Posting on your own website helps you to boost your website ranking and your own business. In that way, you can make money more soon than posting on Wealthy Affiliate. So, from my side, I never recommend you to post on Wealthy Affiliate, instead keep on posting on your own website. Even you can copy paste your previous blogs which you have posted here in Wealthy Affiliate to your website and delete those blogs from here.

So, it's better you delete content/blog from Wealthy Affiliate and keep that in your website. That way you can be successful more soon. Don't delete those from your website.

And I'm surprised to see why many members here are suggesting you delete a post from your website. I'm your sponsor and the founder of high traffic website https://NewsOnlineIncome.com. So, definitely, I will not suggest you a bad thing. So, believe me, it's better to post on your own website than in Wealthy Affiliate.

Good Luck!

Thank you for your help !
Much appreciated.

As has been stated below, the answers are there.

answered below!..ClintKopp has got it

As others have said, I agree. One thing I will add is that you need to think strategically - where does the post best serve your business.

It depends on the topic and your purpose in publishing the post, but usually it is a higher priority to build content on your website (your business) than to create posts at WA. ~Jude

Thank you so much for this education . So the purpose to post at WA is for .........?????

Deleting from your own website is quick and easy.

Go to sidebar look for pages or posts
hover or click
Click on "all posts" or "all pages"
When you see your list of posts/pages
Look for the red text "trash" near the text "edit"

Since that is pretty permanent I would copy and paste and archive
*there may be a delay in trash dump server side, however, assume it is unretrievable as many times things get scrambled and would probably be a painful request

Unsure of the consequences of double posting. I am sure I have read it somewhere.

As far as your content posted to WA I would have to research how to delete that. I am sure I have read about this somewhere as well.

Might check Training HQ and keyword search.

Thank you, and thank you

Elaine $ Scarlett

Hey Elaine,

It sounds like you have shared the exact same blog post on both WA and your website. That is called duplicate content.

However, as long as you remove one or the other as soon as you possibly can, there would be no penalty. Google is not that quick.

The penalty happens only if you leave it... and then only the copy that was shared second would be the content penalized.

Hope this helps you.

Thank you so very much .

Elaine $ Scarlett

Thank you so much

The only 'consequence' is that is against the community rules here at WA and could result in your posting privileges here being revoked. Just delete from your website by going to 'posts' and selecting it and send it to the trash.

Thank you so very much !

We posted new blog this morning but, WA did not send out email concerning it, is there a way to get that done now?

yep site support should be the answer here

I have no Idea sorry

I'd agree with the answer below, site support might be best to answer this one

I think this is a question for Site Support.

no

I agree with others...we get email notifications but the creator of the blog doesn't. The last one I read if yours was about the bus.

I posted new blog and I always receive a email saying saying EandS2018 posted a new blog and then shows the title as it does everyone’s posted blogs. I read a number of them daily in gmail sent fromWA

EandS, I don't believe you receive a notification of your own WA posts. I know I haven't. I just get notifications of replies or likes.

If you go to your google mail see the post that wealthy affiliate
And underneath that will say new blog, and then the post

I know you can select what you receive notifications about. I haven't changed the default setting, but I don't get notified of my own posts, just when people I am following post something.

Thank you for answering my question. I understand now why you said, you didn’t receive those but we like to know as soon as I post so one of us can answer as quickly as possible. We opted to receive those.
Blessing,Scarlett and Elaine

Not a problem. Not sure how helpful I was, but good luck.

Do you mean you posted a blog within WA for the benefit of the membership or do you mean on your website?

I have published over 400 blogs within WA and I have never ever received an email to that effect.

I'm curious - Why do you believe you will receive an email?
Have you received one previously?

Thank for responding to my queastions, read the other answer and I think you will understand. We always receive them after every blog,
